Well, I myself have never used PHP on IIS/Windows platform. But as far as I know PHP/MySQL should work with no problem there. As for PHP/MS SQL, you will probably need to use PHP extension to work with MS SQL databases. You can find more details on requirements here: http://php.net/manual/en/book.mssql.php
