I found the answer and fixed my flash. Look on http://photo.net/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=00ODWf
This
will describe how, if you have been using a speedlite alot, than the
little tab under the shutter release side of the hot shoe can get bent
down thus constantly pressing down (toward the bottom of the camera)
the small button which deactivates the pop-up
flash even when the speedlite is not attached. Just bend the tab up a
little with a jewler's screwdriver, turn the camera off and on and
voila!! Fixed!!! Dan describes pushing the tab down, but on the xti,
the tab needs to be bent up to release the flash deactivation switch
and fix the problem. Thanks to Dan D on photonet for saving me a
service call.
Hi , there are two push button beside the flash push it and will pop up.

it still doesn't work. Even when i open it myself the flash is not working.
I have the same problem. I bought a Sunpack flash and have decent success with it. When I took it off, I noticed the built-in flash no longer works. I did as you did and popped up the flash manually and the flash itself does not work.
