Cannot access the specified path or file on the server, verify that you have the necessary security privileges and that the path or file exists

I am using SQL Server 2012 and just logged in using SQL Server authentication. When I try to create a database in the SQL Server authentication mode, I get this error:

Cannot access the specified file path.....

I tried to fix it by allowing privileges to it but all gone in waste. It also doesn't allow me alter privileges of User in the form of granting the access of dbcreator but also went in waste. Please help me anyone here.

Thanks in advance.
