The KB article cited above discusses sysUpTime instead of hrSystemUptime. By
searching for "hrSystemUptime site:microsoft.com" I found out that Microsoft
documents hrSystemUptime as follows: *Time since the host was initialized
last (1/100 sec)*. So Microsoft's documentation contradicts their
implementation. See also
