Why does the same query return different results in two charts?

Hi Jhilene,

That's most likely because multiple values were logged at the same time, and summed up on the chart you created. I see that your query filters by computer starting with a string, and that means you're probabaly getting back reports of multiple computers.

There are a number of solutions, depending on what you want to chart:

1. You can chart the average, maximum or minimum values of the reports by selecting a different option on this dropdown, instead of Sum:

2. You can change the filter to a specific computer name, which will assure you're not getting many values with the same TimeGenerated value

3. You can use summarize to calculate something different (use with 'bin' to set a fixed bin size of 10 minutes for example)
