TGL.Do you have an external usb hard drive?
If your data is that crucial,I would recommend it.They are cheap enough.
Just a suggestion,for a little cash,you can have allot of peace of mind.
I would just back up all of my data on an external drive,and do a complete
system restore.Your computer should be factory fresh after this.
