Mandrake 7 is pretty old.
You will be using kde3. Any CD inserted will probably be already mounted when inserted.
The support for Mandrake 7 is probably over now, and the distribution changed to Mandriva.
Mandriva
You will be using all outdated packages, so I'd advise you to try something more current.
Most popular distributions can be found on Distrowatch:
DistroWatch.com: Put the fun back into computing. Use Linux, BSD.
Mandrake already comes with some games, but support for windows games can be run using wine. The wineapp database shows what software works:
WineHQ - Wine Application Database
Once again, dont try on Mandrake 7, you need a modern distribution, Mandriva 2011,
Suse, Fedora, Mint take your pick.
