WHat bbotskin are you guys trying to apply. Are they bootskins that you made for yourself or did you download them from this or another site? If they are ones you made youirself then are you sure it meets all the specific requirements?

What version of bootskin are you guys running?

What are your operating sytems?

The more detail you can give the more others can help.

Try this. There has been problems with specific sytems and bootskins. At the top of this page there is a search box. Type in "bootskin" and then press go. A whole mess of bootskin threads will show. You won't have to look far to find a thread that will help you. It's about the best I can do. The bootskin just worked fine for me.

Well lets put it this way. I bought a new pc last year. Brought it home. Messed around a few hours. Deleted the default bootskin. Returned the pc to the store for new one because the old one was now broken. Don't tell HP that please.
