sticky APIPA on internal network interface on windows server 2008 R2

The issue i recently had was a sticky APIPA addressing on one of my Network Interfaces on my just installed server.....

The OS is Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1.

What did i do to resolve the issue:

I gave in a alternative ip address, it started working, after that i disabled the NIC, i enabled it again and gave in the right address. Then it started working with the address i wanted to work with.

Strange issue, but i guess the APIPA was stuck somewhere. Stupid old mechanism....
