I am trying to make a C# game. I want to include XNA libraries there (e.g. Microsoft.XNA.Framework.Graphics). But, if I do so, I get an error :
The type or namespace XNA doesnot exist in the namespace Microsoft.
Can anyone please help ?

First of all, check you are using the correct case, the namespace and assembly names are
XnanotXNA. If that doesn’t work:You should follow the instructions here. These describe how to install (as well as some flavour of Visual Studio 2010) XNA Game Studio and to create a project using the template. Using the template project is much easier than adding the references manually.
To add a reference to the XNA assemblies, you need to right click your project in Solution Explorer in Visual Studio and select “Add Reference”.
If you do not see the DLLs you are looking for, you may need to right click your project, select properties, and then ensure that the target framework is one of the flavours of the .NET 4.0 framework (for XNA 4.0).
