picture...2 processess ok (A and B), process A has taken some resourses but needs more ok.. now process B has taken the resources that A needs, and needs the resources A has to finish.....
Basically A is waiting for B to finish and B is waiting for A to finish... so neither can finish, and the system locks up.. DEADLOCK!!
