This should present no problem. Mandrake has a gazillion drivers 
pre-installed. I would try the video card switch, follow the prompts, 
and expect the best. If the best does not happen, I would try xf86config 
from the command line. But I would really be disapointed if HardDrak did 
not handle this.
