On the L293 shield, remove the jumper marked "PWR". The circuit diagram that I referred to shows that leaving this in will apply your motor supply (the terminal block next to the jumper) to the Arduino, thus destroying the Arduino. I used a 9 volt plugpack as supply. Double-check the polarity!

That code I linked to worked with my board, running a very small 12 volt geared motor happily back and forth. Thankyou Krodal.
