Yes increasing the page file will work if you are mining ETH. If you are trying to mine Cuckatoo it's a very VRAM intensive algorithm. On Windows 10, you can't with 8GB or less VRAM GPU's because Windows 10 allocates too much VRAM for each GPU. You can mine Cuckatoo31 with 8GB GPU's on Windows 7 or Linux.

Same setup as mine  Cool, the reason why you getting error is because you don't increase your page file, you need to edit the page file and insert 6+6+8 gb size as the page file, that's 20gb and your miner will run peacefully, here is a tutor
