    No, you don't have to run the check again.

    Your computer might be configured to automatically restart if it crashes and you get a blue screen of death with details of what went wrong. Often it's too quick to read it, so if you follow the steps in post #8 it'll prevent it from automatically restarting, giving you time to read the error message.

    You can then manually restart it.
