Noises problem

I installed a new serpentine belt and that's when my car started squealing. Then tryed another belt and it still kept squealing. I aslo tryed belt dressing and it kept doing the same thing. I noticed that when the weather was cold outside it squealed but when the weather was hot out it stopped. What may be the cause of this?
