So the power cable of my PC stopped working and I’ve had to replace it, and looking around our stash of spare cables I found one, but this one says 10A=250v whereas the original cable was 10A=125v. I’m just wondering if this is important and if I should only use same A=V cables? Because I plugged it in and my PC works just fine but I’m a little concerned it might damage something internally.

If it’s literally just a power cable (e.g. not a laptop power brick or whatever) then that’ll be fine–it’s saying that the cable will work at anything up to 250V and 10A, and since you’re using it on a lower voltage than that, it’ll be good.
