It's possible the belt needs to be tightened more than you did. Deflection needs to be 5 mm which is pretty tight - same as the alternator belt.

The screech could also be down to air in the pump. You need to check the power steering reservoir level with the engine running. To work the air out you leave the engine running with the reservoir cap off and then turn the steering from lock to lock until no more air bubbles show in the fluid.
