How do I use my US PC in Germany

I have recently relocated to Germany.
I need to know how to safely attached US powered system (110V / 60 Hz) system to German power 220/330v / 50Hz power grid.

Can I switch system to this type of power by a switch on CPU?
Does dell sell power adapter?

Hello-Check the back of your computer for a voltage selector, usually the choices are 115v and 230v. Check the voltage coming out of the wall, hopefully it will be one of those two choices. Also, voltage adaptors are available at stores like Radio Shack and stores that sell gizmos to tourists. I would check your computer's documentation and the Dell website for more info as well.

Don't forget to also check the voltage requirements on your monitor.
