Enable Custom screensaver via group policy

Screensaver Enable
Setting a default screen saver with settings that will be compatible with changes in Windows 7 and with your existing Windows XP and Vista clients.  Start with a Group Policy Object (GPO) that is linked to the OU where your user accounts are located in Active Directory. This can be either a new GPO or an existing GPO that may already have other settings you want applied to all of your users.

Go to Policy > User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Control Panel > Personalization. Here are the policies you’re looking for:

Policy
Setting
Option
Enable Screen Saver
Enabled
Force Specific Screen Saver
Enabled
scrnsave.scr
Password Protect Screen Saver
Enabled
Screen Saver timeout
Enabled
Time set in seconds (900 in the example)
