I've not tried with Vista or W7 yet, but other Win versions from 95 up always
assign C: to a primary partition, the boot partition. When installing the
operating system to a logical partition, the installer always assigns some
other letter of its choice based upon the location of other existing
partition types it recognizes. I normally arrange mine so that the first it
finds is also the install target, which results in a D: assignment for the
operating system.
For his to have been assigned H: means there must have been other
recognizable partitions (e.g. types B, 7, C or 6) closer to the front of the
drive than the installation target.
