DHCP superscope or not?


i have read technet notes on superscopes , thought that's need running through notes think need further assistance, have single subnet network, 1 dhcp server 2003, serving out dhcp xp , 7 clients, servers, printers, resources fixed ip expect.  have been asked change ip address range clients different ip number configuration completely, therefore created superscope, added original scope1 , added new scope2 new address range superscope.  cannot seem find literature on configuration ideally need keep server ip address in original number range (scope1) , clients dhcp query new ip address range (scope2), can point me in right direction?  many thanks. jo.

a superscope not correct approach scenario based on description.

if switching out ip range, have make sure network configured correctly.  for example, if on our network have clients ip addresses in 192.168.1.x/24 range, , start configure other clients in 192.168.2.x/24 range, not able communicate each other because need have router in between 2 logical subnets traffic route between them.  

if have single subnet trying re-ip, easiest way schedule outage, re-ip network equipment , servers first, implement new dhcp scope, restart dynamic clients can obtain new ips on new subnet.

if going try in phased approach, need set 2 vlans , have router between them re-ip clients on new subnet, can still communicate hosts on original subnet.
