You can only assign drive letters to physical folders or hardware devices
(CDROM, etc).  It is simply not possible to assign a drive letter to
anything else, unless you write your own device driver to make the system
think that it is communicating with a hardware device (which you could then
direct the requests to your DLL as needed).
