Gpedit.msc on the local computer is the local group policy. GPOs from the domain do not change this policy... with the exception of disabling it if that's set to happen in a domain GPO.
If you see the settings when looking at cmd gpresult (from the endpoint) or GPMC group policy results (from the server/computer with GPMC, checking the loopback setting if so needed), then you're all set.

I want to apply some Windows 7 admx's I have extended the schema using adprep from a server 2008 r2 disc. I have GPMC installed on my Windows 7 machine. I have created a GP using the Windows 7 machine. I have ran GPupdate on the DC. I have ran GPupdate /force on the PC. I have ran GPResult /R on the PC and seed the policy created above. I run GPedit.msc on the PC and I do not see the policy settings??? WTF and I doing wrong? (The settings are ScreenSaver settings.)
