I know this is an ancient thread but some Windows issues never get old. I've read all the threads I could find to resolve exactly this problem. Bob's solution was the simplest. I simply pointed the pagefile to c:\windows rather than C: and it was able to create and all is good. Bob did not mention that he had created a folder at c:\p, but I guess that is obvious. It appears that you can direct the pagefile anywhere as long as it is a valid folder and system has full control.
