It probably is not screaching while the starter is engaged, but immediately after, and only when the engine is cold. If that is the case, then the belt that drives the alternator and the power steering is slipping. You need to have another person stand in front of the car, with the hood up, when you first start the car and try to pinpoint the location of the noise. Even a general location will help.

You may need a new belt. And a new PNP, it is not that expensive. The PNP problem did not cause the current noise.
