Before you give up on the Hamilton Beach, check to make sure the problem isn't a blown fuse in the microwave itself. To access the fuse you will probably have to remove the side of the microwave where the electric cord enters. Follow the electric cord and you should find the fuse. Make sure the microwave is unplugged from the electrical outlet before attempting this.

Hi Claudia, There are so many ways to deal with a touch screen on the microwave. Loc dots are nice and some folks put them on in the form of the pattern of five on dice. You ten have a less cluttered screen that way.
