Program that tells file name from sector number?

Hello all,

my sister in law asked me to fix her DELL Latitude D600 notebook
because it threw bluescreens during the boot process. I suspected
a bad sector on the drive and tried to backup the drive contents
first using Acronis Trueimage. Indeed, Acronis told me the drive
had a bad sector but it wouldn't tell me which file occupies that
sector.

I know the sector number, but how am I going to find out which file to
replace after restoring the backup on a new drive? If I know the
file name, I can probably pull it from another PC.

BTW, the notebook's drive (a Toshiba 75 gb) was too hot to touch.
Never a good sign.
