I think you probably do not want the 'absolute' option.  Also, from the
Title line, it looks like you should have 'noo' in there as well.

You probably have set the LegendI and Legend1 incorrectly?  Also, MRTG
doesn't like a blank LegendO.  Just omit the line entirely.

lines starting 'YLegend[machine]:'.  Each target shoud have a different
tag, eg use 'Target[machine-cpu]' and similar for the other lines
relating to the CPU target.

You can also add a 'AbsMax' line (see the MRTG manual) if you want to
make sure 100 is the definite maximum.

If you are suing routers2 as your frontend, you can get this by having
the 'aspercent' option.  I'm not sure with native MRTG.

Probably this is just your labels getting mixed up and confusing you.
