if you know about where that section has bad sectors, you can exclude it as partition out from Windows installation as unpartition. you need to backup all your files first.

Personally, I think it's not worth the trouble to use a HDD with bad sector. Your data might be gone anytime when the bad sector spread. And believe me, it will spread. There are no pre-emp notification on when it will spread. Worst is when the bad sector is at the beginning of the drive where the file allocation table is stored. Data in whole drive will be hard to salvage.

agree. resizing the partition will only delay the inevitable.
