I'm sorry, but no, it isn't. I suspect that perhaps if you are seeing
a PC with a blank hard disk getting a "system partition" /as well as/
the Windows OS primary partition, then what you are doing is either
not installing but recovering from manufacturer recovery CDs, or you
are using a highly-modified version of Windows.

Windows does not do this and never has.

I am not trying to single you out here or quibble needlessly but you
are spreading disinformation. I am sure this is through an honest
error or misunderstanding but in context it is rather important.
