Open Powershell as Administrator and type Whoami /all
Get the SID information and record it somewhere
Run C:\windows\system32\sysprep\Sysprep.exe
This will bring up the System Preparation Tool (sysprep)
Select Enter System Out of Box Experience (OOBE) and Select Generalize 
Reboot the Server
Open Powershell as Administrator and type Whoami /all
Verify that the SID changed from the one that you recorded earlier
Change the Static IP or DHCP /release if applicable
