Where can the input voltage selection be changed from 110 volts to 220 volts on a computer system?

The voltage can be changed for a computer in a few ways. The advanced way is through the BIOS. However this is not recommended for an everyday user! You can find a few programs online that will allow you to safely change the voltage and some that is still for advanced users but easier to do.
WARNING! Changing the voltage can permanently damage your PC. Most likely cause overheating. You should never change the voltage on a PC unless the goal is to overclock! Overclocking will void computer manufacture's warranties!

∙ 10y agoThe input voltage has to be changed before the source enters the power supply. Look on the back of the computer for a switch that can be placed, either in the 110 or 220 position. This will allow the computer to boot up using the correct input supply voltage.

What is the physical equipment in a computer system?
depends on what you mean on computer system
Operating system not supported on this computer what does this mean?
my computer problem p3 computer 98operating system is not install
What is the master controller for all the activities that take place within a computer system?
The software that acts as the master controller in a computer is its firmware. Traditionally, this firmware was known as the ROM BIOS. It was initially installed on Read-Only Memory that could not be changed, and was called the Basic Input/Output System. Now that has been supplanted in newer computers by the Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI).
What are the assets of a computer system what are the possible categories of attack on the security of a computer system or network?
3 assests of computer system -hardware -software -printer
Which component on a computer stores permanent instructions which cannot be changed?
The ROM BIOS chip stores permanent instructions. ROM means read-only memory. BIOS means basic input/output system, meaning the very basic instructions needed to power up the computer. From there, the operating system loads.
Define manual system computer system computer based system?

Where is the voltage regulator in a 2000 dodge Dakota?
The voltage regulator is NOT built in the alternator, it is part of the ECM, that is the Engine Control Module. The module (computer) monitors the charging system and signals the alternator how much voltage to send it to keep the system working properly. the voltage regulator is built in to the alternator
What does the ecu on the 86 dodge lancer have to do with the charging system?
The engine computer is the voltage regulator.
Why we use binary system?
Computer understands the changes in voltages. To be more precise, a higher voltage and a lower voltage determines the action the computer takes for an input. And to make it more simple for programmers, a higher voltage is given the value 1 and a lower voltage is assigned the value 0.
Will a computer system with and inadequate power supply always fail immediately when its powered up Why or Why not?
Yes . This is from the lack of flow the Power/ Voltage needs to push thruout the Computer system.. The Less or more improper the voltage out put for a computer system the less wattage it have to proper send voltage thru to eace of it's intewrnal tower / tesktop elctrict pathways need for evenm bot up or runing thru or with basic operation modes.
What inside the system unit regulates the wall voltage to the voltages required by the computer chips?
Power Supply
How does the operating system help the computer start up?
The operating system of a computer tells the computer which programs to start and in what order. This sequence insures that the computer will work properly. This sequence can be changed by using selective start up.
What housed inside the system unit regulates the wall voltage to the voltages required by the computer chips?
Power Supply

Which component is designed to remove high voltage spikes and surges from a power line so that they don't damage a computer system?
Which component is designed to remove high-voltage spikes and surges from a power line so that they do not damage a computer system?
What is surge voltage?
Surge voltage means sudden big voltage. Surge voltage is of two types lightening surge and switching surge or in electrical engineering, a voltage rise that endangers the insulation of electric equipment. A correct calculation of voltage surges is of great economic and practical importance in the selection of insulation and of measures for power supply system protection, particularly for voltages above 10kilo-volts(kV). There are two types of voltage surges lightning surges and system generated surges.
When overclocking a system the system could be unstable and give intermittent errors or overheat why?
A system overclocks when the voltage is changed manually by the user. Due to this overclocking, there is a high risk for every component of the system, mostly, the processor.. The processor gets over heated soon and the system resets or throws errors..In my point of view, its recommended not to change the voltage specification of the system..
