Use the ADMX files. Just make sure to edit your GPOs on a Windows 2008 or Windows 7 machine.

Extract your downloaded files and dump them on whatever machine you are working on:
%systemroot%\policyDefinitions

as deviprasad said, it is recommended you create a central store, which is pretty easy:

Is the CRX file already present on your workstations? If so, is it in the same location on each workstation?

Have you check the permission on the folder on which the CRX file resides.

What errors are you getting in the event logs when you state that previous ADM deployment failed?
