    [Part I, cf. the preceding review.] \textit{S. S. Page} [Pac. J. Math. 79, 169-176 (1979; Zbl 0369.16015); Commun. Algebra 10, 2253-2259 (1982; Zbl 0493.16009)] has shown that if R is a non-singular right FPF ring with maximal quotient ring Q, then Q is also right FPF and is isomorphic to a finite direct product of full matrix rings over strongly regular rings. In this paper, the author provides an example that shows that not all non-singular right FPF rings arise in this fashion and gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a non-singular right FPF ring to split into a finite direct product of full matrix rings over right FPF rings whose maximal quotient rings are strongly regular. In the last part of the paper, non-singular right FPF right quasi-continuous rings are characterized.
