why doesn't c29 work with 8gb win10?
Because windows 10 doesn't allow use entire video memory, miner require about 7GB of memory, however windows 10 doesn't allow to allocate 7GB.
I suggest use linux, under linux you will even never think about page file size, it always work on standard system settings with any number of devices.
why is win10 so stupid  Huh

The problem is between wddm 2 (the video driver model of win 10) and nvidia driver.
On my amd vega (8G), I have no problem running the miner with 7G allocation on win 10, whereas with the nvidia 8G, this doesn't work.
Nvidia has tcc driver which put the card in compute mode (pure mode without wddm) but it is restricted to pro card or titans., not for geforce.
