The steering wheel was held against the tire position when it the key was turned off. Simply pull the steering wheel in the direction it was held as you turned off the engine. Try try pulling the wheel left as you try to turn the key on and if that doesn't try pulling to the right as you try turning the key. My wife had me drive to the shopping center when she did the same thing. Just apply turning pressure to the steering wheel as you turn the key. No great strength is involved. Don't force it. A little jiggle is all it takes.

It is definitely not the computer. It is in the steering column/lock cylinder. A local locksmith or a car mechanic is your best source for help.
