[Moderator (Sealeopard): Moved thread from 'Scripts' to 'General' forum due to lack of script in body]

I am making a logon script that will force the password-protected screen saver on and remove the Screen Saver tab from desktop properties in Windows 2000. The password-protected screen saver IS being forced on on all systems, but the tab removal is not.

I am finding that in some cases the key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

does not exist. Attempts to add it with

ADDKEY
("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System")

do not work. I have also tried

WRITEVALUE("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System","NoDispScrSavPage","1","REG_DWORD")

but that doesn't work either. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong here, please?
