All you need to do is (at the DOS prompt)

  cabal install hsc3

and it will take care of downloading and installing all the
dependencies for you.

The latest version of hsc3 seems to be 0.8, is there a particular
reason you need 0.7?  If you specifically want 0.7 and not the latest
version you can specify that by instead doing

  cabal install hsc3-0.7
