Hi Carsten, solved.
Anyway I could not find the setting at all, but after upgrading to GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i386-mingw-nt5.1.2600) of 2009-11-04 on LENNART-69DE564 (patched) (from the emacsw32 site) and in the initial setup switching most of the special windows stuff "off" C-a finally stops marking the whole buffer.
