error: C:\Windows\NTDS does not refer to a valid hard disk

I'm setting up Active Directory Domain Services on Windows Server 2012 Standard and I'm receiving the following errors:

"Specified paths are invalid. Verification of directory paths failed. The folder C:\Windows\NTDS does not refer to a valid hard disk. Select a folder on a hard disk drive"

 "Specified paths are invalid. Verification of directory paths failed. The folder C:\Windows\SYSVOL does not refer to a valid hard disk. Select a folder on a hard disk drive"

I have searched on Bing and Google, and have visited many forums and have not found a solution to this. There was a forum in TechNet with same problem,  mentioning about installing a hotfix to fix this issue. (hotfix 299451) however the hotfix # mentioned on the post is incorrect.

So please, if someone has this solution. Let me know. Thanks in advance.
