It means your drive can't initialise the disc.

 

See if there are any firmware updates available for it.

 

Oh and make sure it can actually burn double layer discs!

 

Out of interest, which Verbatim DL's did you get? the 2.4x ones or the newer 8x ones?

What's the exact drive make / model / firmware version that you've got?

 

Have you ever used the MKM-001 (Verb 2.4x DVD+R DL) disc before? Perhaps you've just got a duff (fake) batch?

 

There really isn't anything you can do about this issue, it's purely a hardware / media one.
