If you "upgrade windows xp to windows vista" you will no longer have Windows
XP, so the answers to your questions are, not relevant and no, respectively.
Additionally, you will have to remove Norton and any other program from XP
before you upgrade to Vista.

As a caution, Vista in any of its current versions is not meant for a
computer you rely upon because it is not a final product, still has some
quirks and bugs, has no official support from Microsoft, many hardware
manufacturers and software vendors products will not work with Vista and it
will stop working after the end of May, 2007 with no chance of upgrading
again to the retail product.

Perhaps, if you want to test Vista RC's, you should do some research online
and investigate "dual-boot" installations.

Good Luck!
