it might be of your drive security. i had same problem but i solve it. my drive security was my name but when i change it to administrator it works..
for this go to properties of your c: drive and at security add administrator then at permission for administrators tick all allow.. and at advanced add administrattor to auditor and owner and replace it
if security doesn't show go to tools folder option \ \ view at last remove the tick of Use Simple File Sharing (Recommended)
and if this does't work try to format your drive with command if this also don't work you will need bootable softwares to format your drive
