It depends. Unfortunately, Dell has made a number of updates that they called a "ROM update" but in fact it is just a patch and doesn't flash the ROM but goes in RAM instead. Those ones should be reinstalled.

Look at the update you downloaded. If it's around 30 MB then it's a real ROM update. If it's much smaller than that then it's just a patch.
