Thank you Baum for your input, but the problem is that when I use two stage xtabind2 without windmiejer's correction but with year dummies, all coefficients are significant but when I correct them for Windmeijer's correction almost all of them become insignificant.
The model works perfectly alright with xtpcse. Please suggest what should I do? My supervisor's area of expertise is political economy :(

If you were working with me, I would suggest that you are trying to explain something at, e.g., the firm level that does not seem to have much to do with explanatory factors at the firm level, but is rather almost completely explained by macro effects. Your model suggesting that firm-level factors (or whatever the units are in your panel) play a significant role does not receive support from the data.
