No it doesn't! It only exists as free space on the hard drive, and
that doesn't get a letter assigned to it.
You're drawing the incorrect conclusions from the way MS have chosen
to make their Operationg Systems present things to you during install.
However, things don't actually work in the way that they appear to, eg
installing Win95 to a blank HD the standard install will automatically
make it a single partition without giving you any option to partition
things any other way.
