Inventor is not capable of adding the individual links, so that's pretty much what you get with the design accelerator... however, if you want to change the chain to at least not be transparent, you can go ahead and edit the chain part and change its appearance from "Clear - Blue" into something more solid.

To model chains fully you'll need to work a bit more:
