• This question is very badly implemented. I knew it couldn't create a database on my system because it made too many assumptions:

    1. Can I write to the root directory of my primary disc drive?

    2. Do the absolute paths given for the file locations exist?

    To the moderators of SQLServerCentral I repeat what I have said before: "Please ensure that questions posed can be answered based on knowledge of the question subject matter and that they are not affected unduly by local configurations.:
