Will removing macOS Ventura and installing Monterey on my new MacBook Pro Max M2 have an affect on my new laptop?
If downgrading to Monterey, are there specific instructions/step-by-step for beginners?
Are we speaking of these machines in link below ?
MacBook Pro 14- and 16-inch - Tech Specs - Apple (CA)
It was released in 2023
That said, the Older Versions of macOS would not work on this machine as the OSes would not have the specialized elements in the OS for the specific machine

I guess the first question would be why do you want to downgrade? The simple answer is you cannot downgrade. if your M2 Mac shipped with Ventura then that’s the base macOS for it. Sure, someone may come in here with a way to do it but I can almost assure you you will encounter problems.

I guess you missed the part where the user stated they have an M2 Apple Silicon MacBook.
I had Monterey on my MacBook Pro M1 and it ran fine. Now that I'm using Ventura, many Apple apps are very slow to respond and screens freeze up...a lot. I have to do a Force Quit many times. I am using Safari. On another site, one reader said that Chrome was better with the new MacBooks for 2023. Not sure it that would help. I'm glad I got my answer to not downgrade! Thanks!
Please Clarify as original questions >> " Remove Ventura and install Mojave on a new MacBook Pro Max M2 "
Which is presumed to an accurate account of what computer is in question
In which case, if the machine is in fact M1 Apple Silicon >>
The link below will provide two Methods.
One for Intel Computers
The other is for M1 Apple Silicon Computer

Mojave or Monterey? Mojave will not run at all.
Note that if you go back to Monterey your Photos Library will not work. They are not backwards compatible.

Technically, not possible on the M2 Apple Silicon Computer
Mojave runs on Intel based Computer which this computer is not
I meant Monterey. I have Monterey on my iMac M1 and I don't have any issues like I have on my MacBook Pro M2.
