Its a loose connection problem. About an year ago, the same problem happened with my monitor. Though yours is only spots, I had my whole screen yellow!

I Took the monitor to a technician and told him to replace the connector and it solved the problem.

BTW, do you get the initial BIOS/CMOS screen also yellow somewhat ?

If yes, then you have the same trouble which I have. Else, test the monitor on another PC, and if the same problem repair your monitor.
