I upload the zip file into the cpanel file manager , wud do I do next ,?

you are going to have to install it. There should be a readme with the zip pack. They should tell you the install directory and the file you need to run. Since I have never used PHP-Nuke, i'm guessing you are looking for install.php. This might be in the main directory or in an install folder if there is one.

I would look it up, but I don't have time to setup PHPnuke right now, maybe tomorrow I'll write something for you :D
