I want to use remote debugging. The program that I want to debug runs on machine b. Visual Studio runs on machine a.

I had the same issues. Found the answer on the msdn forums I'll just copy/paste the correct answer here:
Make sure that you're using the correct version of msvsmon.exe!!! That's all it was! i had the same problem while remote debugging a C# application. I was using x64 msvsmon.exe because the server runs Windows Server 2008 64-bit, but the application was written for x86, so I had to run the x86 version of msvsmon.exe in order to get rid of this annoying error. Nothing else was needed. Just run the version of msvsmon.exe that corresponds to the target architecture of your application ^_^
