after you click apply do you click OK? If so , just click apply and just close without clicking OK. Try that.

I had the same problem - partial skinning: start button and clock were skinned, but there was a gray hole in the middle. Reinstalling 5 times helped!! But to me, it happened only with Adni's skins!? Weird!
