Can you also fix it without restarting X by changing the key repeat rate in
the keyboard control panel (both gnome and kde offer guis for this)?  I
wouldn't be surprised if what's actually happening is that the X server is
changing the repeat rate because of something else that just coincidentally
happens at the same time as your reboot of the win98 box - like the
screensaver kicking in.
