See my reply on your other thread for guidance. We don't know what your goal here is. Are you literally just wondering if anyone has ever tried to remove drivers from an ISO before loading it into a VM? I mean obviously we have, this site and tool has existed since XP...
These guides (link1, link2, link3) can get people of any skill level started on using NTLite, and will answer most of the basic questions.

For a VMware or VirtualBox environment, each guest OS requires drivers for the built-in devices they emulate.
From the Drivers screen, use the Toolbar menu option to select your VM type. A list of known drivers will appear in the Hardware Checklist pane, and you can compare if any critical drivers are missing in the loaded image.
For a Hyper-V host, you will need to keep most of the Hyper-V virtual drivers in the install image to support guest OS's.

Dear Toredo, if you work with Windows 11 in Hyper-V, you should not touch the driver cache because it has integrated Hyper-V drivers to give a seamless experience, i.e., no driver installation needed, when the image is booted as a VM Guest. The other non-Hyper-V drivers would not give performance hit besides eating up some disk space (a few GB perhaps).
