Well as luck would have it, it loaded 50% and with 110 minutes to go I get an error message that it can't read the disc. I ejected it, cleaned it, reinstalled and received same message. It is a used disc so I've asked the eBay seller to exchange or refund. We'll see what happens.
Makes sense that factory settings are in a hard drive.
I am having the same issue where the unit can't read the DVD after it started uploading...
And when I try and restart the Nav without the DVD in...
Were you using a Aston Martin DVD update? Or a Volvo one?
I asked the (ebay) seller for a replacement disk, we shall see...
I've had the exact same issue you're showing. Searched all over the volvo forums and couldn't find what can abort this procedure from restarting every single time the car is turned on. Please update if you do!

Make sure you get the correct version from Volvo. Its for older models like S40, V50 C70 models from 2008 to 2012 or so... That is the vintage of the equipment in the older cars...As I recall my update4 was 2017 for when I installed it in 2018. Not sure if they have newer map updates.
As I recall, you must have a bootable disk in the drive to use the screen. However, the nav is totally worthless, so perhaps you just never start it up.

At this point I'd be happy if I could get it to never start up, but thats part of the problem - it pops up everytime the car starts, trying to finish its "update". If you hit the back button quick enough, you can stop it, but then it restarts again the next time you start up.

I think the Nav screen pops up automatically unless you switch it off before you turn off car. Do you have the disk that came with the car?

Yeah it used to do that. But once I attempted this upgrade process that now stalls, it pops up all the time regardless of when I get it to stop and shut down. Car didn't come with a disc before, and yet somehow never had a problem. Should have left well enough alone. (even if it wasn't really "well enough" to begin with, lol).
