I’ve installed Windows with Parallels and need help starting up Autocad with the same interface as Autocad on PC.
MacBook Pro (M2 Pro, 2023)
Running Windows in an emulator is not going to give you the exact same "look" as that of running it on bare metal. You are running it inside another app, and that app wants its own slice of the screen pie.
If you have issues with the way Parallels displays Windows, you need to talk to the Parallels developers. All Apple does is supply the compatible hardware and OS, 3rd party developers determine how their app works within that environment.
Everyone here is a volunteer and anyone familiar with your issue may or may not ever check in. For that reason alone, quizzing Parallels tech support is likely going to serve you better.

wmware (a competition to parallels)
claims to have support for the 3d gpu features of the apple cpus comming
VMWare Tech Preview 2023 has full hardware 3D acceleration (appleinsider.com)
normally virtuel machines only really get basic video card features, so 3d stuff and gaming is not really enjoyable
autocad may benefit from that
AutoCAD for MAC 2024 runs natively on both intel and Apple Silicon (M1/M2).
The Performance is improved significantly when running natively on Apple Silicon machines.

You can try with that new version.
Just to add, The Intel and ARM64 aren't identical. So they would look somewhat different even when running natively on Windows PCs.
