Are you suggesting stopping the CPU fan?  If so, not good.  What you could do is when the " beep" is occuring, briefly attempt to halt the fan by hand to see if this is the culprit. Inspect the fan while the unit is off, to verify the center, usually flat, where you wont harm your finger.

 When exactly did you see the CPU fan not on? Was is when the machine was running? If so, there lies the problem. As the CPU fan is required 100% of operating time, if the machine is powered on, posting, sleeping, hibernating, anything, the fan will run. At least I have not heard of any other option.

  So the fan is, or is not running , at the exact time of the noise
