I'd start by booting a System Rescue CD CD, hopefully booting it to RAM
so you can remove the CD. Run it for a couple hours. If you hear any
beeps, it's hardware. Otherwise it was software and you can start from
there.

You really wouldn't want to start with an erroneous assumption as to
whether it's hardware or software: That's the kind of thing that leads
to day or week long efforts.
