It sounds like the E5300 processor is not compatible, try reinstalling the default processor and see if the machine starts without any errors.

The E5300 is a Wolfdale series CPU, released several years after the 745, and it's plausible there's no support in the BIOS.

Systems that have Pentium D dual core are NOT compatable with E6700 Dual Core.
Intel Pentium D 940 Dual core 3.2GHz 4M/800MHz SL95W
Presler
65 nm
Intel Pentium Dual-Core E6700 AT80571PH0882ML (BX80571E6700 / BXC80571E6700)
Microarchitecture Core
Wolfdale-3M
Core stepping R0 (SLGUF)
CPUID 1067A (SLGUF)
Manufacturing process 0.045 micron
Often Confused with
Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 - 2.66 GHz 4M Dual-Core Processor
0.065 micron SL9S7 SL9ZF Also
1066Mhz FSB requires PC2 8500 Ram.
