If rograndom doesn't help you or you don't read him PM, you want to look for a PHP conditional loop. You'll need to edit a few of your template pages to check if your "specified" page is being shown, if yes it takes the loop for header / footer / sidebar / etc, if no it defaults to the original. It's easy and free to add. I can post some examples here if you need them. Or check the Wordpress codex.
The basic answer for anyone else is something along these lines (this is for the header include, repeat for sidebar, footer, etc.):
<?php
if(is_page('id-of-special-page-here')) {
include('special-header.php');
} else {
get_header();
}
?>
Make sure you have actually created your 'special-header.php' file, etc, and replace the regular <?php get_header(); ?> call with the above.
<?php
if(is_page('id-of-special-page-here')) {
include('special-header.php');
} else {
get_header();
}
?>

You could also do it like this: Pages WordPress Codex
Then when you edit/write the page you can choose the template from the page template list under advanced options.
