S70 Key and Ignition issue S70

My 2000 S70 has a new problem. The car turns over and starts fine, however, frequently stops running before I get it into gear (5 speed manual). I have only used one key in fourteen years, and one guru seems to feel that the condition of my key is causing the issue due to wear. So, I switched keys and the problem was corrected for about two weeks. Now it is occurring again. Is there a key "reader" in the ignition that can be repaired/replaced? Does the entire ignition require replacement? Will I have to get new keys with new identity chips? Some thoughts please.
