If we look at the AMD Community forum, affected users are reporting that even after updating the BIOS and motherboard drivers, something is missing in the Device Manager with the AMD Link Controller Emulation item. It has a yellow exclamation mark.
Additionally, some users are also getting a dialog box that says “Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52)” Luckily there is a workaround mentioned below that should help you out.

- Just press the Windows + X keys to open the Quick Link Menu.
- Then click on Device Manager > Double-click on the AMD Link Controller Emulation to expand it.
- Now, right-click on the item and select Properties.
- Click on the Driver tab and then select Roll Back Driver to downgrade the version. (If available)
- If the Roll Back Driver option isn’t available, make sure to click on Update Driver to check whether there is an update available or not. Sometimes an outdated version can also cause several issues.
