A common term used in the freak out and xbox 360 community, general hardware failure (much more commonly known as the infamous red ring of death) is when an xbox 360 shows 3 quarters of the circle red. If this happens, the xbox 360 is basically toasted. Not to be confused with the friendlier hardware failure, who only makes 1 quarter red and doesn't toast your xbox 360. Name is based of the infamous BSoD (blue screen of death), who can be fixed much easier than the red ring of death.
