How do I properly hard-wire old electric switches and drywall over them? I have a 4-switch box where they all were hard-wired with wires still in the box, but the switch boxes/switches are still sitting in the wall.

The fact that you’re thinking of putting drywall over electrical boxes indicates that you know little about electrical safety. It is a serious violation of electrical code to permanently cover any electrical junction box, unless all wiring to it has been permanently disconnected, removed, or otherwise rendered safe.

Get on-site help from somebody who actually understands electrical regulations and safety, not from someone on the Internet who can’t even see the situation you want to address.
