The php5.ini file is in the root. There should be a php.ini file already there so if there is more than one, move the one(s) so that it’s not in the root and that should fix your problem. I say move it b/c if anything else breaks it may be better to have the newer ini file instead of the older one.
Thank you for clarification!

I just fixed my problem. I removed ‘php5.ini’ I noticed that I started having problems around the same time that that file had a time stamp. I moved it to another folder to test out my theory. WordPress began to upload properly so I removed it. I have it saved (just in case) but it seems counter productive.
