• A. nothing better than
• B. anything else unless
• C. nothing but having
• D. nothing else than
• E. No correction required

'Nothing else' is correct usage. Using 'than' makes the syntax complete its sense which means 'he wanted only....'.
E.g. The manager wanted nothing else than production and output.
