E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
E: _cache->open() failed, please report.

I need help installing Wine on my computer, i keep getting the above command prompt everytime I do. My friend didn't have Windows so when he fixed my computer he put Ubuntu on it but I can't for the life of me figure out how to work it. Can anyone help?

Open a terminal (menu - accessories - terminal window) and type

sudo dpkg --configure -a
type your password when prompted. That's what apt (package manager) is telling you.

If you have any more problems you should also take a look at the Wine wiki page (http://wiki.winehq.org/).
