I've had belts squeak when they had contaminants such as antifreeze on them even when they were tight. Correct the conamination source and then replace the affected belt(s).
DISCLAIMER: Use this advice carefully and at your own risk.
You can find if the belts are making the noise by spraying them with bleach. The squeak will temporarily disappear if that's where the noise is coming from. You MUST then wash the bleach from all surfaces with clean water!!! It is very corrosive and will cause aluminum parts to look like garbage if left on them. Of course, any colored fabric it contacts will likely turn white. It shouldn't hurt anything else as long as you wash it back off.
