Registry Question Worth 50

Howdy, Why do some systems write to the registry and act on this immediately, while others have to be rebooted ? I have a windows95 system and a windows98 system. When i write to the registry expecting a result with the 95 it is immediate in writing and then does what it is supposed to instantly, but i have to reboot to get the same results with the 98. It will write to the registry in 98 immediately but won't act on this until rebooted. Is this the system itself or the windows version ?

If there is a way to make the 98 system act as the 95 by forcing something (showing how bright i am now) then i am all ears and have another 100 points to spare !
Thanks
