SignTool Error

I have InstallShield Express 2010, Version 16. I am on Windows XP. When I run Build CD Rom with the option set to compressed, I get the following errors as documented in the log file:

SignTool Error: ISignedCode::Sign returned error: 0x8007000B
An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format.
SignTool Error: An error occurred while attempting to sign: Data1.cab
ISEXP : error -1027: Failed signing Data1.cab
ISEXP : error -6258: An error occurred extracting digital signature information from file "T:\GN212.132\_isprep\InstallShield\GN212.132w\GN212.132 Word Documentation\GN212.132 Word Documentation\Express\CD_ROM\DiskImages\DISK1\Data1.cab". Make sure the digital signature information provided in the IDE is correct.
ISEXP : fatal error -6260: Internal build error
Express\CD_ROM - 3 error(s), 0 warning(s)

Any clue what I need to do?

Did you ever resolve this problem? I am stuck on this too.

I encountered this too for a setup that was previously working.

Not sure what "The string contains a character not in the 7 bit ASCII character set." means. The files didn't change.

Started signing 218B.tmp ...
Number of errors: 1
SignTool Error: ISignedCode::Sign returned error: 0x80092022
	The string contains a character not in the 7 bit ASCII character set.
SignTool Error: An error occurred while attempting to sign: 218B.tmp

 I could digitally sign the setup.exe file afterwards using a DOS command line.

Not sure why InstallShield stopped doing so. It's still able to digitally sign other builds.
