Is fully formatting a hard disk the only way to kill the bad sectors?

Are there other choices? Like some program can handle with it?
I’ve a hard disk having a problem of auto restart the computer. I’ve seen there are 40kb of bad sectors in the hard disk. Is it a bad option to continue using the hard disk without killing the bad sectors?

better opition is to re-partition it.this will fix problem.
