I came across a laptop owned by a former employee of the GE company. I have tried to find some suggestions about what to do. When I turn it on it tells me some stuff about it being owned by GE and I can't figure out how to get past it.
If this is now your laptop and it will not go back to GE simply reinstall windows. Make sure you delete all partitions and make one big one formatted as NTFS. It will run exactly like a new PC. Make sure go get XP Pro OEM and not Vista. Newegg.com is a good place to buy stuff.

First, I'm not an HRO representative.
* Check with your HRO dept. Need to follow Employee Handbook.
*** Following if for information only.***
* In most cases you want to pay out everything. Current pay, vacation (accrued), Sick leave (accrued), Stocks, Bonds, etc. Another words if you intended to fire the employee. What would you pay out to let them go.
* 401K and other retirement funds are usually closed out after the annual accounting. You will need their forwarding address or an account to transfer funds to once all the accounting is done.
* Withholding for outstanding debts; IE tools, equipment, that was issued by the company. These charges should be reflected before the final pay stub to allow the employee to turn in these items.
* You should not hold back any pay that is due. Though you could wait till the next pay period. But most companies will pay out within a 1-3 day period. Sooner the better.
* HRO representative needs to be the last person to see the employee. It may be the same person that did the job interview. They need to find out why the person is quitting. There may be possible "situations" that the HRO is not aware of and needs to be addressed. If there is any indication, the company needs to have a good rapport with the exiting employee. They need to feel "safe" when leaving the company and that at least one person is looking out for them (regardless of circumstances). Suggest that they can call you for reference.
* People make mistakes. It may be the employee, other employees, supervisor, Management, or even a sister company, vendor, customer. You don't know unless you ask around.
* IE; I hired my brother and his friend but both quit in a week. Later (lots later) I found out one of the departments were stealing product. They thought my Brother and he's friend were "spies".
* now days we could have been sued for "Hostile environment" by the two former employees.
* Best to be safe and have a nice talk on exit.

There should be a product key on the bottom. As long as there is you can just download a copy of XP from digitalriver.com and use that key. Burn the iso file downloaded on to a disc and boot to the disc and follow the prompts to install XP.
You're having a NO POST/NO VIDEO issue I understand which can mean any part required to POST could be the culprit. Have you tried hooking up an external monitor to the vga port on the laptop to see if the lcd screen is bad and get video on the external monitor? I'm former Dell employee and can tell you if you're in warranty you need to call so you can get warranty replacement. Go to support.dell.com
Download the manul and you can see the troubleshooting section what the led diags lights mean.
Good luck!!!
I'm not sure if this will help, but here is a possible contact to try and get a manual. I know that Evesham.com went out of business. but I found this information on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evesham_Technology
A group of former staff from Evesham headed by former Evesham employee Robin Daunter started Tewktech, a company selling computers and offering repairs for a variety of brands including Evesham Technology.
