Beginning with Windows 8, ultraiso open and I've extracted all the files in disk1.
Then In EasyBoot menu use menu command: run \ bootmgr
I have a 4GB flash memory. But I also use 8GB of flash memory, but still not right.
Wanted to program 'usb-nt6-setup.script' I use. But I was faced with bcdboot.exe error.
I always reboot computer and run setup from Easy Boot menu on USB flash drive.

You are recommended to test setup from DVD to make sure there isn't a hardware problem 
Test from DVD before testing from USB drive
However, you can also test the 'standard method' to run setup of Win8 from USB drive to make sure it works at all before using EasyBoot
Test this method HERE to see how Win8 from USB behaviours before using EasyBoot
Report if it works or not

In post nr;2 I wrote - quote:
The 'Win8' case...
1. Copy folders and files (or extract from ISO-file) to folder disk1 in EasyBoot
2. In EasyBoot menu use menu command: run \bootmgr
Above is tested and works very nice 
Note: I tested using Win8 as source
I have no idea why above solution is a problem in your case 
---------------
EDIT!
I have updated my scripts (found a bug in 'usb-nt6-setup.script' that halted the script - no harm done - but irritating) 
Please make a new download and replace the whole folder 'balder'

Script failed to find 'bcdboot.exe'!
You need to find
Script need a copy of file 'bcdboot.exe' in folder 'Tools' (balder\WinBuilder_Complete\Projects\Tools)
You can search your own Windows system and find 'bcdboot.exe' and copy file to folder 'Tools' path to folder 'Tools' is:
balder\WinBuilder_Complete\Projects\Tools
Attention! If you install Wi-8_32-bit the file 'bcdboot.exe' must be an bcdboot.exe_32-bit file!
You can most likely NOT use a bcdboot.exe_32-bit file to create boot-files to USB device
that is an Win-8_64-bit installation!
Use the same 32/64-bit bcdboot.exe as installed Win-8 system to USB device has!
Script clean automatically up and stop the process when you close this Window!

Why are you using 'Install and run Win-8 from USB.script'
I clearly instructed you to test using 'USB-NT6-SETUP.script', but you are currently using 'Install and run Win-8 from USB.script'
This script install and run Win8 from USB drive and DO NOT prepare Win8 to run setup from USB drive
Please notice difference to run a complete Win8 from USB drive and run SETUP OF Win8 - this is two totally different operations
As far as I can understand - you are primarily interested to run setup of Win8 from USB drive (using EasyBoot menu)- correct?
I told you to only make a test using 'USB-NT6-SETUP.script'
Attention! Do a new download of my scripts and totally replace folder balder with the new downloaded folder balder!
I found a bug in script 'USB-NT6-SETUP.script'
However, I tested my suggestions as told in post nr;2 (copy files to folder disk1 and use menu command: run \bootmgr) and this works perfectly

Nice that you didn't give up and finally solved all four entries - very good  :
1 - win8 (solved)
2-active boot disk (solved)
3-kasperasky rescuse (I guess this still is a trouble-maker)
4-repair win8 (solved)
-----------------------------------

Well it depends what you mean with 'WinXP on flash'
You can easily run a WinPE-ISO-file (ERD5 or similar) and launch ISO from EasyBoot-menu (but in this case you need my script 'easyboot-iso.script' and in script tick 'Run ISO from RAM')
However I guess you mean run setup of WinXP_sp3 from USB flash drive - correct?
Run setup of WinXP from USB drive isn't that easy to solve but possible.
First you need a special tool - download HERE
Note: this tool is free to use - no costs or license needed
The point is to create the 'setup-folders' of WinXP and copy these (and related files) to folder disk1 in EasyBoot
The original tutorial how to run setup of WinXP from USB drive is HERE
Then test this:
I tested using an 'spare' USB stick
This is what I did:
1. I copied file setupxp.img from folder 'balder\USB_Resources' to folder EZBOOT and used menu command in EasyBoot: run setupxp.img
2. Launched WinSetupFromUSB_0-2-3.exe
3. Used in WinSetupFromUSB_0-2-3.exe built-in format tool - RMPrepUSB with 'FAT32' and 'XP bootable (NTLDR)' as settings.
4. I browsed to WinXP-files in WinSetupFromUSB_0-2-3.exe
5 Finally pushed to GO and accepted everything
6. When finished, I copied following files and folders (look below) from USB stick with WinXP setup-files to EasyBoot\disk1
$WIN_NT$.~BT
$WIN_NT$.~LS
BOOT.INI
BOOTFONT.BIN
NTDETECT.COM
NTLDR
TXTSETUP.SIF
windefault
WINNT.SIF
WIN51
WIN51IP
WIN51IP.SP2
Note: you may have some more 'tag-files' to copy over (win51IP.SP3 or whatever)
This seems to work okay - but no guaranties as files are copied from USB drive to folder 'disk1' in EasyBoot (always an hazardous manoeuvre)
EDIT!
I made a short 'movie' how you can do the WinXP from USB launched from EasyBoot
Download and extract - and double-click to 'winxp_usb.html'
Download HERE
