A Whine Coming from the Engine...

I have a completely stock 98 Altima GXE with 101,000 miles. When idling i hear a small whine and when i accelerate it gets louder. Someone told me it could just be that I need to replace my belts. Could someone help?

could be belts, could be the alternator, could be the power steering. mine has whined since day 1. sounds like an extremely small turbo. i dont worry about mine. ive changed the belts, the engine, the alternator - the sounds always there. ive given up - its an altima thing.
