Take up the floor, put down a layer of felt or other soft insulator and replace the floor making sure to make all the joints tight. Lacquer the floor and make sure the lacquer penetrates the joints to glue them together.

The reason your wood floor is squeaking is it's rubbing up and down on the nails that secure it to the joists. To fix it, you buy a "squeak ender" kit, a container of wood putty the same color as the floor, and maybe a little varnish. This comes with special screws that have heads that snap off.

Vibrations that come through the breaks squeaking can cause the irritating squeaking that we have come to know. The high frequency of the vibrations results in the high pitch squeaking. Alternatively, the squeaking can come from the disc that secures the brakes, when the vehicle is coming to a stop.
