92 900 TC squel/whine at startup

I have a 92 900TC with 127k and at startup, I get a whine noise that sounds like a loose fan belt. Since I bought the car 5 months ago, I have replaced the belts and recently tightened them up but the sound has only gotten worse so I am begging to rule out the belts. The sound only occurs at cold startup (won't make noise when engine is hot) and occurs for about 1-2 seconds. I need some other suggestions about possible problems and any help would be appreciated. I was thinking also that it could be something to do with the starter (since it only occurs at startup) or maybe the bearings in either the water pump or power steering pump or even the alternator that haven't gotten any fluid to lubricate them. Anyone ever have any similar experiences? Thanks for any help in advance.
