Thought I'd see if there were any sql server drivers for php 7. Another question on Stack Overflow pointed me to these drivers here
So I install php_sqlsrv_7_nts.dll into my ext folder and add the following line to my php.ini:

Finally got this solved. Needed to install some more things before it would work, namely:
