Anyone know how to hot-wire a 6400R CPU fan for a few minutes while I snarf a file of it?

We had a power surge over the weekend and it took out a CPU fan on my Proliant 6400R -- apparently the replacement parts are starting to get a bit scarce on these models and I can't find an easy & cheap replacement anymore.. All I need is a replacement fan or if someone can tell me how to temporarily hot-wire the thing to keep the BIOS happy so the server won't power itself off.. Any suggestions/ideas until I can find a suitable replacement would be appreciated.. Hmm .. What about removing that CPU? Would that work?
