Group policy issue

Im installing an application called Device Lock on my 2003 test domain.  Its used to block USB/CD rom acess, etc. All the configuration is done through group policy. I've created a new GPO at for the computers OU and ticked 'over ride' in options. I've GP forced on the server and the domain but the policy is not being picked up the workstation. Can someone assist please?

Cheers.

Is the workstation XP or something else?

No other polices have been applied and this one is aimed at a computers container with AD. The machine is XP and there is only one DC. No other replication issues appear as far as I know...

I tried to deploy the MSI (for the service to be installed on the client)through the software deployment option within GP, aimed my computers container (not the default container) but this also did not install.
Although old school, have a nosey at TweakUI also.
Kiwistag, thanks for the reply but I do not want to install any third party apps on my server. Can anyone respond to my previous post?

As I said I attempted to deploy the MSI through GP but this did not work. Is there any way to check my group policy is actually working on the selcted OU in question?

GPRESULT on the client returns the following: 'The user does not have RSOP data'

GPRESULT on the server returns results as expected.

When I run rsop.msc on the client, I get the following error
RSoP data is invalid. Likely causes are, data is corrupt, data has been deleted or data has never been created.
Datails: Invalid namespace
What errors are you seeing in your event logs?   Have you tried running an RSoP report from GPMC?  

Thanks

U need to enable the setting " always wait for network".

This setting is under computer configuration, network, log on.
