Verify that your CD is Mode2 - check in Nero InfoTool

i have tried 3 types of cd-r's... i am not sure if they are mode 2 will imgburn tell me or alcohol 120...

ImgBurn won't tell you after the CD has been burnt.
Dunno about Alcohol 120?

Use ImgBurn to open the image file on yr PC - it'll show then if it's Mode1 or Mode2

Describe a bit more what goes wrong.

Does the nav recognise the CD-ROM is inserted and commence the upgrade procedure?
Are you waiting long enough? You need to wait up to 6min
Are you keeping the ignition turned on the whole time? First position (radio on) is sufficient
Did you do a verify after you burnt the disc? You should get minimal errors - I tend to get around 10 errors, which has always been OK. If you get hundreds, suspect a bad CD-R
Have you tried different CD-R media? Sometimes the cheap CD-Rs work better than the expensive ones.
Make sure you have aKey CD on hand. If you upgrade >v17, it will ask for a key CD. Note that Key CD image is not readable on a PC.

I have the same problem the screen shows that software will be loaded but doesn’t do anything, also I went to bmw dealer and they couldn't fix it for me

mr brown, did you get it going? Have you tried a hard reset on the nav drive - ie pull power? Was wondering if the mode 2 helped you.

Yes pulled power did mode 2.. I think I have to take it to the dealer to make it update via hooking it up to thier computer since the software in it now is so old.. Sound about right???
