This is the article I'm taken to when I'm told that my laptop, since it has a m2 chip not intel, cannot run BootCamp. I click learn more, and it takes me to this page with a tutorial I can't use? That's a little weird…
Mac Pro (2023)
Apple-Silicon-based Macs don't support Boot Camp – and even were Apple to offer a Boot Camp feature in a future version of macOS, all that you could install would be the ARM version of Windows, or another ARM-based operating system (like an ARM-based distribution of Linux). (Any OS installed in a dual-boot fashion runs on bare metal and must be compatible with it.)
Parallels Desktop will let you run Windows 11 for ARM inside of a virtual machine. That version of Windows can run some Wintel applications (using its own Intel emulators and/or translators), but there will be overhead, and some other limitations.
If you are interested in that, you can check out the Parallels and Microsoft sites.
