I believe you cannot run those modes on a boot volume. I wouldn't either.

Norton is not as mac friendly as you might think. If you're bent on making it work try booting to the norton cd and running those tests.

Be warned it may not yield a desired outcome.

Norton's Utilities or Systemworks is not compatible with any version of OS X above 10.3.7. Symantec discontinued developement several years ago.
