I recently had to do the same thing. I did all the usual things you mentioned and also decided to buy a standalone Western Digital USB hard drive of about 300 GB and copy the complete C drive to that disk before I replaced the C drive. They are pretty cheap now.
I am amazed at the number of time have had to get something off of that drive so it was a good investment.
