Most desktops PCs have a switch in the back that allows you to switch between 110 volts and 220 volts. That is probably the covered switch you see in the back, but it should be labeled. Turn the computer completely off, unplug it from the wall, and set the switch to 220, then plug everything back in and start it up.
