I did it in the garage and of course it didn't work until I "had" to take a spin around the block so the airwaves could do their job. But the only way I could get it to take was fast acceleration from 0-60

I have a 06 and lost nav and clock when I changed out my battery about a year ago. After going to the chevy dealer and finding out they were not aware of it. But after about 2 months my clock came back on and works great. The gps still takes about 5 mins to come back on but then works great.

Your post caught my eye. I to, do not remember the clock showing up on what you are calling the splash screen. I really like it though.
I don't mean to be ungrateful...and maybe its just me, but do you think the splash screen (C6 logo) outer edges now appear even fuzzier looking than they were before? I noticed at the end of the clock update, a very clear looking, possibly C7 logo, appeared momentarily on the screen. It was very crisp & clearly defined. I sort of just figured it was related to the Corvette engineer (who wrote the program fix), maybe his software signature, etc., etc. I am wondering if a clearer C6 logo is possible to install. Obviously this was a free update and I should be happy as is.. Just wondering...

I updated my car yesterday with a CD-R, Windows 10 and a USB burner. decompressed the file into a folder, burned the file. Did the upgrade in the garage, all is well. I will send the disk to anyone who would like it, just drop a PM.

When I burn the file I see this: LOADING.KWI 8/29/2019 KWI file 11104KB
I put this CD-R in my '07 all I get is 'Disc is not a map DVD' waited almost 3 minutes and nothing happened/
Any ideas
Thanks,

Many burning from the Windows 10 system program have not had great success with the file burn.
I personally used Nero Express (free download) to burn the file to a Verbatim CD-R and it worked flawlessly. I have burned some for friend of mine with the C6 platform, and sent a few out to forum members for free in the past.
There are many circulating as a pay forward as per above post. Maybe you can either try to burn using a known working burn program, or ask to have the CD-R sent to you in turn.
Good Luck

Is it necessary to re- insert the map DVD which I don’t have?
My attempt at the fix failed and I think it’s because either I burned the fix with Windows 10 or because I didn’t insert a map DVD after the file upload was complete.
