instead of the more conventional C: drive.
Hmmm...  sounds to me like D: is the optical drive the XP install CD is in, which is where the command interpreter would have loaded from, meaning any command prompt started from that environment would open there.

I think the post by FarzadA has provided the needed answer already, though.
