Shut down, switch cards, turn on.
Prevent Windows from installing a driver and use the latest driver from AMD.
I found when switching from Nvidia to AMD (or vice-versa) the biggest pain is a lot of games will write Nvidia settings, but after you switch to AMD those games wont work anymore. You either have to edit config.INI files or re-install the game so it detects AMD on first run.
