I followed the instructions found in the step-by-step videos linked in the sticky above, and everything works fine until I go to load the ROM. It kicks the status 21 error at me. I haven't been able to find anything on this error yet; anyone have any ideas or insight?

It pays to have friends in the know...

Status 21 = Space in directory - i.e. "SAMPLE ROM" instead of "SAMPLE_ROM"

read somewhere that if you have spaces in the file name it can mess it up, but can't confirm that

Yep. If I hadn't, your post up there would have made me try it and see if that fixed it anyway! Gotta remember that not all OSs will handle spaces in directories/files...
