Hi,

First, find out whether emacs is actually receiving the key combination
CTRL SPACE.  Type, CTRL h c CTRL SPACE.  This should tell you what
C-SPC is bound to.
If it is not bound to anything, or bound to something other than
set-mark-command, add the following to your .emacs:

	(global-set-key [C-SPC] 'set-mark-command)
