I have a loud squealing noise upon starting the car. the squealing normally lasts about 30-45 seconds. sometimes the noise will appear aftrer pulling off from a stopped position, as well. all belts

Try to tighten the belts a little firm.Sounds like when engine idling no squelling only when about to take off .Some times belts may seem ok on the outside but if you look on inner side you tend to see cracks in the belts .

Makes a loud squealing noise when i start it?

CHECK THE ALTERNATOR BELT IS TIGHT AND SERVICEABLE . THE EXTRA LOAD ON THE ALTERNATOR WHEN YOU START THE CAR IS CAUSING THE BELT TO SLIP.

I have a 97 ford explorer limited awd v8 and when I was driving it made a loud pop and started making a loud squealing sound. I put a new belt on and it wont start I charge my battery and my belt stops...

Sounds like you have a pulley locked up. Did the belt break? If not, it could have just flowed over the locked pulley without breaking. Take the belt off and spin check all the pulley's. You will find it. Was you running the air compressor?
