YES
You can install Windows XP on your Mac with pentium-3.
Absolutely. These were the newest processors available when Windows XP was released.
Officially, Windows XP requires a minimum of a 233 MHZ Pentium processor. Unofficially, with a minor patch or via hard drive swapping, any Pentium processor can be used.
As an absolute, that may never be known. Officially, Windows XP requires a 233 MHz Pentium processor. Experiments conducted by various people have run Windows XP on processors underclocked to just 7 MHz.
Windows XP runs on any x86-compatible processor starting with the Intel Pentium.
Yes.
Yes. The minimum requirements for Windows XP are a 233 Mhz Pentium, 64 MB of RAM, and 1.5 GB of hard drive space. Any Pentium III computer should have more than enough RAM and hard drive space.

I have installed Windows XP on a 200Mhz Pentium, so it is possible, but there won't be much disk space left after that. There are "light" Windows XP versions for netbooks around the net that might help.
No particular action is needed. Just boot from the Windows XP disk. It will prompt you to format the hard drive and install Windows XP. Windows XP will supply a generic driver for the video card.
There are several reasons why Windows XP does not run on a 486:1. Most 486 computers simply cannot support enough memory to run Windows XP. 64 MB is pretty much the maximum you'd ever find in a 486; 8 to 16 MB is most common.2. The kernel in Windows XP is SMP-enabled by default. To support SMP, Windows XP uses an instruction called CMPXCHG8B, which is only found in Pentium and later processors.3. In order to allow for optimizations on-the-fly, such as using MMX or SSE instructions, Windows XP also requires the CPUID instruction, which only the later 486 processors had.
