> No ARM Boot Camp
Why don’t Apple silicon Macs support Windows for ARM in Boot Camp?
In terms of hardware, Intel Macs are only really a special build of PC, and getting them to start in and run Microsoft Windows was relatively straightforward. Although made a bit more complicated with the addition of the T2 chip, they have remained highly compatible with other PCs.
Not only do Apple silicon Macs have a completely different processor, but all the supporting electronics in their chips are different too. While the special versions of Windows made for Microsoft’s ARM–based Surface touchscreen systems are built to run on ARM processors, they’re designed for completely different firmware and supporting hardware systems.
Apple silicon Macs have to start up from their internal SSD, from which they prepare to run macOS. There is a point in that process that can be used to run another operating system, like Asahi Linux, but for that to work with Windows on ARM it would require a lot of changes. Unless Microsoft decides to build in support for Apple’s hardware, the only way to run Windows
