What is your question?
About 2 weeks ago I noticed my power steering fading, now it is as if the car has died when I try to turn corners and earlier today I started the car and my belts were screaming and smoking. I don't know what the problem is but I think it's all probably linked to the power steering failure.

there is something seized on it causing the belt to squeal I would remove the belt and try to turn each component by hand to see if everything turns freely and check your p/s level ,if you cant find anything then you probably need a rack...
Sounds like the pump is gone. Cold start the engine and see if the pump is spinning, if not, you're done diagnosing. If it is, after a few seconds turn the engine off and see if the PS pulley is hot, if so, bad pump.
