Make sure the pulleys are aligned, try new belts, or spraying some belt dressing on might work for a while.

Replace them if you haven't anyways. On my car, I had a pinhole leak on the rad hose that sprayed one of the belts. So when ever I started it up, it slipped and squeaked as you say yours does. Like I said if you haven't replaced em in a while it can't hurt anyways.
