Here is a link to a photo of my sister's laptop. She said the laptop
fell on the cord. I think what happened was that when the laptop fell
on the power supply a plastic ring on the end of the plug came off
inside the laptop port.

I've seen that happen with other barrel type connectors.

Any creative way to get remove it?

Undamaged? If you don't care about damaging it, you could use a drill
bit just larger than the hole. Try drilling at very low speed so the
bit snags on the ring rather than drilling through it. Once you get
it snagged, pull the drill out. If that doesn't work a tap or an
EZ-out will be sharper and might snag better.

The outside circle has to be undamaged. The outside circle being the
laptop itself.

The power supply plug has popped off into the laptop. I need to get
the old part out before I can re plug the new power supply.

I forgot to mention that the inside of the computer plug has a center
pin.
