Drivers wouldn't help. You need a GPU which supports Metal.

Which dovetails into my earlier posting

Earlier than what? And as I stated in the follow up question, even if the Mac does support Metal, UTM may not.

2011 MacBook Pro does not Officially Support running macOS 12 Monterey and / or macOS 15 Sequoia

There are ways to Trick macOS to run on a Non Qualifying Apple computer

But we are Not Permitted to discuss such methods

If you look at the picture the user posted, he's trying to run a macOS guest in UTM, which may not support Metal.

I think you need to check UTM Support.

FWIW, if your Mac is new enough to support Metal, it means a UTM guest doesn't.

Installing drivers for a feature your machine does not support will not magically make it support it.

You can’t do that.

They would not require Metal 3 drivers

macOS Sequoia is compatible with these computers

Support for Metal on Mac, iPad, and iPhone
