Everything went through good as I was supposedly thinking. Installation of Operating system was done. Now, as I double-clicked 'my computer', I saw the listing of drive letters which I didn't really like. That was something like below:
C:Removal Storage drive
D:Removal Storage drive
E:Removal Storage drive
F:Removal Storage drive
G:CD Drive
H:Local Disk <---My Actual Harddrive where Windows was Installed.
Before I proceed with driver installation, I really needed to solve this issue. I tried to name my actual hard drive as C but that didn't happen. I needed to do that because I wanted to stay away from the hassles of my regular software installations looking for C: and popping up error dialog box messages.

To find what those removal drives really are for, I checked the system thoroughly, I found there was a separate bay for all kind of SD/MICRO SD,COMPACT FLASH I/II/IIMD/SMART MEDIA/xd/MMC/RS/MS PRO DUO slots in front of the casing. SO, those slots were taking C: drive letters and so.

I tried changing those letters as usual from Window's Disk Management but It wouldn't let me change that of the active partition. I was left with no hope. At first I thought hacking through registry but thought It might not work and what if it became waste of time. So, instead of fiddling around with the registry. I thought to re-installation of OS one more time.
BUT, this time, I needed to detach those cables of media card reader from the motherboard and hit the re-installation.
Everything went fine again and this time, it picked up the C: letter correctly without much of a hassles. So what, next up , I plugged in those left-out cables of Media card reader and Windows assigned them drive letters respectively.
Problem fixed, took 2 hours of my time.
Thank you for reading my post.
