Issue with GPO Applying Correctly
Please see attached document for settings and structure. I need to disable the screensaver on all my conference room PC's, I I have a GPO the has both Computer settings and Users settings defined. My main user settings policy has only User Settings defined. I've tried Loopback with replace, but it completely replaces all User Settings with the Training GPO settings. I've tried merge, but it does not disable the screensaver. Any suggestions would be great.

I appears that the disable policies are override by other policies. Ie - There are few OU's just above the Training and conference room machines. So, those polices are having screen savers enabled. So, obviously it's overriding the disabled policies.
Simply right click the "Training and Conference Room Machines" OU and make it "Block Inheritance". Perform Gpupdate /force and reboot the machine. Check the issue and see it's getting the correct policy applied?
