Noise from belts
First you need to remove the belt and check all the pullies to include the acceseries (A/C, Power Steering pump, Alt.) If they are all free moving and not worn then replace the belt and check the tention. Also if a belt is wet or has oil on it this will cause noise as well.
Car overheating
You may have a blown engine head gasket. Check your oil to see if it is milky because water is getting into the oil, and check the water to see if oil is getting into the coolant.
If you have either of these, you may need to have a new head gasket for the engine, and hopefully you do not have a cracked engine head.
This will require a fair bit of work to fix correctly. Your local garage or mechanic may be your next call.
There are some products you can use in the coolant for either of these, but it is only a temporary fix.
