Q: Temperatures for mid-2007 Macbook Pro with only one fan running

I installed a new and larger hard drive on my macbook pro (mid-2007) a few months ago. I noticed afterwards that the fans were loud and I attempted to clean the right fan, unfortunately breaking the connector port on the logic board, so now I only have the left fan running. I have been monitoring the computer's temperatures and have only been using it for fifteen minutes or so at a time.

 

I currently only have Safari and the App Store open and these are the temperature (in Celius) readings:

Are these temperatures too high? Should I refrain from using the computer? I am planning on getting a new Macbook Pro in the coming months, but I just want to make sure that using the computer with only one fan won't harm it. The programs I use most frequently are Safari, Pages, iTunes, Calender, Mail.

 

Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8)
