Default Another Nut problem

Hello lovely people. I have been trying to help a friend who has a fairly rubbish Hondo guitar. Someone had put a nut on it that was way too big. I bought a nut of the right width and sanded it down to the right height.
Now when it is tight up against the end of the fret board I can tune the guitar, but by the time I get to the 5th fret the note is high and un playable.
Here is what I have done:-
Straightened the neck
New strings
Measured with a fret rule

I had less problem with a guitar I made for my gcse than this - any help or wisdom from you guys would be awesome

Thanks Melody xx
