Please first make a backup copy of your registry as described here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/back-up-registry#1TC=windows-7
Next check out these steps below:
1. Log out and fully exit Origin
2. Open your Registry Editor - Type in regedit on the Start Menu Search field and press Enter
3. Navigate through HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > Wow6432Node > EA Games > Battlefield 4
4. Check if there is a folder named Xpack1 under Battlefield 4
If YES -> Click on Xpack1, on the right pane check if there is a string named Installed, the Value data should be True
If NO - right-click on Battlefield 4 > New > Key
- a new folder will be created, name it Xpack1
- right-click on Xpack1 > New > String Value > name it Installed
- on the right-pane, double-click on Installed, set Value Data to True
5. Exit Registry Editor
6. Log in to Origin and Join China Rising Maps
Update (thanks gimemo!): If you are experiencing the same issue with Second Assault, please repeat the process above but with Xpack0 instead of Xpack1.
Xpack0 = Second Assault
Xpack1 = China Rising
Xpack2 = Naval Strike
Let us know how you get on!
Cheers,
Nils

When I try to make a new key, it says "Cannot create key. You do not have the requisite permissions to create a new key under Battlefield 4" So what am I supposed to do? I payed for the deluxe edition and china rising worked, then I got a new computer and china rising wont work.

2018 and still a problem. This is total BS... I'm not gonna start editing registries. apparently it has been a problem for 5 years. The company took money and then want's us to do their job? Don't think so.

I have windows 10 as well and I too am having problems with China Rising expansion not loading, it seems to be stuck permanently on preparing??? All the things that the EA people have posted I've checked, and all seems ok in the files, but still nothing is working? It just won't finish loading
