FIX: Extraordinarily Large Negative Number Shown in Server Three Month Rollup

SYMPTOMS
You may see downward spikes in the performance counter views and large negative numbers in the
minimum field of the performance display.
If you view one of the rollup PerfHistory tables in the MSDE database for Application Center 2000, you may see a large negative number for an entry as shown in the following example:
[PerfHistory4]
