I try to use some samples but I receive a lot of errors like:
Error 1 The type 'Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3D.Mesh' exists in both 'd:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC\Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3DX\1.0.2909.0__31bf3856ad364e35\Microsoft.DirectX.Direct3DX.dll' and 'd:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC_32\Microsoft.DirectX\2.0.0.0__31bf3856ad364e35\Microsoft.DirectX.dll' D:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (December 2005)\Samples\Managed\Common\dxmutmesh.cs 19 17 SampleFramework_2003

You should really search these forums before posting, this question has been asked many times in the forums.

You will need to give us more information than that. What are you trying to do (step by step) and what errors are you getting.
C# and VB are just as good as each other for DirectX applications apart from 2 things:
1. There are far more samples and tutorials in C# than in VB - if you can read C# well this won't bother you
2. C# allows unsafe code with pointers etc. There are some occasions where this is helpful to get the very highest performance which would be important in a large complex game. However as a beginner this really won't affect you.

In VB.Net look in the project properties - there is a tab called references where you can add and remove what you need.
This really is a very basic.Net question and not approrpiate for these forums. You should probably find a beginners VB.Net book or find an online tutorial to get you beyond this otherwise getting to your media visualizer is going to be a very long process.
