Try adding this to your site.cfg file (if you don't have, go ahead and create
one with the following contents; put it next to scipy's setup.py):

[lapack_opt]
library_dirs=c:/MinGW/lib/atlas
libraries=lapack,f77blas,cblas,atlas

[blas_opt]
library_dirs=c:/MinGW/lib/atlas
libraries=f77blas,cblas,atlas
