I have a Core 2 Duo MBP. I was playing around with Fan Control, then uninstalled it, but the last settings I left seem to still be in effect.

Can anyone tell me how to restore default behavior? Presumably it's settings in AppleBlower.ktext and AppleFan.ktext?

Thanks!

No, it's not PRAM; it's settings in the two files I mentioned. I just don't know what the original setings are. I did read somewhere that for the new MacBook Pros, Apple increased the minimum fan speed to 2000, so I've set that. But I'm not sure about the other parameters, and I'd prefer to just reset it to "stock".
