[mrtg] SNMP Disk Space Negative Values

Am attempting to use MRTG to monitor disk space on a Windows Server as I have done on multiple servers and workstations in the past. However, this time the local storage capacity on the local drive partition is nearly 15TB. 
 
It appears that I have exceeded an SNMP threshold where the integer values are now negative numbers. For example to monitor total space on the C: drive I used (simplified)... iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.4.2 * iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.2
 
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.3.2 = STRING: "C:\\ Label:"
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.3.4 = STRING: "E:\\ Label:"
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.4.2 = INTEGER: 4096
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.4.4 = INTEGER: 4096
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.5.2 = INTEGER: 10350335
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.5.4 = INTEGER: -268468737
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.2 = INTEGER: 6261795
iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.4 = INTEGER: -527400222
 
With the E: drive, iso.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.4.4 correctly shows the cluster size (4096). However, I am sure the total number of clusters isn't '-527400222'. Even if I used the absolute value of 527400222, the numbers don't add up to the 15TB partition size. 
 
Any suggestions? Or have I reached the limitation of MRTG for the purpose I am looking for?
 
 
Thank you, in advance, for any assistance!
