Launch Turbo Tax and open the return in question. First, manually calculate the figure(s) the IRS says is incorrect. They have been known to be wrong. If you made an error, you need to file an amended return. If the IRS is wrong, you need to respond to their letter in writing with documentation that your numbers are indeed correct. If you discover that the Turbo Tax program itself is responsible for the math error, contact Intuit support and they will be responsible for any penalties/interest you incur. They should also give you a free copy of the 2010 program. Intuit support email here: https://turbotax.intuit.com/support/contact/

You need to call the IRS and if you dont already have a copy of your filing paperwork then ask them to send it to you. Go to H&R block and have them check everything out.
