You'll have issues with DNS. After changing the IP address, force A
record re-registration using ipconfig /registerdns. Remember to also
change the IP address of the DNS server. If this is your only DNS your
clients will most likely have problems with name resolution since they
will still be configured with the old IP address for DNS. If you're
using DHCP, change DNS servers option in the scope to the new IP
address. Keep in mind that this will take effect at the next refresh
interval (at least 50% of lease time). You can force a client refresh
with ipconfig or by rebooting the client. You might leave the server
configured with both IP addresses for some time until all clients pick
up the change.

Basically, these are the possible issues, feel free to give more detail
on your specific setup so we can give you a more precise answer :)
