Squeaky Belts

I have another quick question for you guys.. What would make belts squeak like CRAZY on startup? It only does it on startup when its been sitting for a while. Brand new belts are good and tight also. I had a power steering leak that i thought was causing it, but i think the leak was from the reserve hoses not being tight enough. Anyone have suggestions? Thanks

It does that in the winter when it gets cold. The belts get harder and can't grip. Every Nissan I have ever owned has done it in the winter. If they are all new belts and you're sure they're all good and tight (really tight) then you could try some silicone belt dressing or spray.
