Default wrong letter system drive

I removed a broken hard drive (which was Window system drive) from (some
one's older computer) and built in a working drive.
Configured all in BIOS, OK so far.
Now I partitioned & formatted the "new" drive and installed Windows XP
(SP3), taking care to choose the swapped drive label as the Windows
partition, not to overwrite the other existent HD.
After installation Windows seems to reside on the D: instead of C:.

What the .....*%%&$ ?!

What mistake can I have made? And how can I fix this situation?
