One of our clients has a big Power Point presentations he wanted to upload, to his website.

he tried changing the limits to 4M file-size using

/admin/settings/uploads 
 
But he failed, and got a long error message from Drupal, saying:
Your PHP settings limit the maximum file size per upload to 2 MB. 

Depending on your server environment, 

these settings may be changed in the system-wide php.ini file...
 
The solution is to:
find out where php.ini is by typing:
 echo "<?php phpinfo(); ?>"|php |grep Configuration 
then, edit php.ini , and increase the value of parameter
upload_max_filesize
It is also recommanded to increase the value of
  post_max_size 
 
to the same value of
  upload_max_filesize 
 
, and to increase significantly the value of
  max_execution_time
