Theres really nothing to go over, Hillrider is right, you need to replace the cassette/fw. You can put the old chain back on and probably go for another 2-3 years with the same combo, but you can never use another wheel with a different cassette/fw with the chain you have, and you will probably need to replace the rings also when you replace the chain/cass/fw.
