Just a guess.... 3000MB exceeds the value of a 4-byte integer when converted to bytes. -1149239296 is the signed equivalent of 3145728000, which is 3000 * 1024 * 1024. I'm guessing that since the upload size is greater than a (really large) negative number, PHP is throwing an error. That's probably where the 2GB figure comes from. Andrew
